Chapter 143: Jiang Baobao, Let's Confess Everything

~7 min read 1,281 words

Evening—

Li Mansion.

The atmosphere at the dining table was oppressive, as it always was.

Jiang Baobao silently served food to the three little ones, while Li Beijue sat with a dark face, not saying a single word.

The three little ones exchanged glances without a sound.

Mobai then acted as their representative and spoke up: "Mommy, let's go for an outing this weekend! The kids in my class said there's a place perfect for a barbecue! The lamb skewers there are especially delicious! Tiantian will definitely like them!"

Jiang Baobao was taken aback upon hearing this, then immediately agreed without a second thought: "Of course we can, then let's go for a barbecue this weekend."

Hearing her agree so readily, the three little ones were all quite excited.

Li Beijue, however, did not express his stance.

Yanbao stared at him for a few seconds and asked tentatively: "Daddy, come with us."

"I have work to attend to this weekend, maybe next time." Li Beijue refused without hesitation, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Baobao.

He did not want to take the children out with this woman for the time being!

If there was somewhere they wanted to go, he could take them himself!

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Yanbao and Mobai instantly turned somewhat dejected.

Daddy actually didn't agree!

Wouldn't the plan for a family outing be ruined then!

Both little ones were somewhat unwilling to give up.

Jiang Baobao looked at their disappointed expressions and opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the words reached her lips and she swallowed them back down.

Who knew why this guy wouldn't go?

What if it was because he didn't like being with her?

If she spoke up in this situation, it might have the opposite effect...

Jiang Baobao was somewhat conflicted, and as she was thinking, she heard Yanbao say in a low voice: "Daddy, Mobai and I will be starting our studies soon, so we might not have as much time to play on weekends. We only have time this week, so please come with Mommy and us..."

Li Beijue was stunned upon hearing this, a flash of hesitation crossing his expression.

Yanbao and Mobai had indeed obediently chosen the courses they were interested in earlier.

Although it wasn't tiring, it did occupy a small portion of their weekend free time.

"Daddy, let's just go together." Mobai also suddenly spoke up, looking at Li Beijue with an expectant expression.

Li Beijue found it hard to refuse again, so he nodded, yet he suddenly cast a complex look at Jiang Baobao.

Forget it, he would just go with them this once.

If this woman really had thoughts of marrying someone else, then he would never let her have contact with Yanbao and Mobai again!

There wouldn't be any such opportunities in the future either!

Weekend.

The three little ones had been incredibly excited since last night; they had climbed out of bed as soon as the sky turned light, even earlier than Zheng Bo.

"Grandpa Zheng! Remember to pack our snacks!"

Tiantian stood at the kitchen entrance, staring intently at Zheng Bo as he placed the snacks Jiang Baobao had made yesterday into an exquisite little box.

"Yes, yes, yes, Grandpa remembers..."

Zheng Bo agreed repeatedly, a kind smile on his face.

Although Li Beijue had ordered that no one in Li Mansion was to use honorifics for Tiantian, everyone in the villa had grown very fond of this lively and cute little girl over this period of time.

The three little ones spent the early morning busy running back and forth in the villa, and it was only when Li Beijue and Jiang Baobao were both ready and got into the car that things finally quieted down.

"Mommy! I heard there's a huge meadow over there where we can fly kites!"

Mobai had already done sufficient analysis on the place they were going and excitedly pulled on Jiang Baobao as he spoke.

Jiang Baobao immediately replied: "Then after we finish lunch, Mommy will take you all to fly kites!"

"Okay!" the three little ones agreed in unison, and a burst of laughter came from the back seat.

Not long after, the car passed by a wide river.

Driving further ahead, there was a vast meadow that stretched as far as the eye could see.

"Wow! We're here!"

Tiantian leaned against the car window, her big eyes scanning the area quickly, and she saw guests who had already arrived to play there setting up barbecue grills.

There were also pavilions on the meadow, one after another, and fixed shops for purchasing barbecue supplies.

"It's really beautiful here! You little ones are too good at picking places!"

Jiang Baobao's expression was also somewhat surprised, and she suddenly began to look forward to today's activities.

Li Beijue had been listening to them chat in silence the whole way, and now, looking at the scenery outside, his expression finally softened a little.

Today was meant to make Mobai and Yanbao happy.

He hoped that woman Jiang Baobao would behave herself!

Li Beijue's gaze flickered for a moment as he found an empty spot and parked the car.

The three little ones in the car had long been impatient; they immediately opened the doors and jumped out.

Mobai took a quick look around and immediately shouted excitedly: "Mommy, come quickly! Let's go find the best spot!"

Jiang Baobao shook her head with a smile and immediately walked over with long strides.

The spot Mobai had chosen was next to a small pavilion.

Nearby, there was also a man-made reservoir, and the small fountain inside was spraying water continuously, making one feel a sense of coolness just by sitting beside it.

"Mommy! When can we start the barbecue?"

Tiantian is truly a little foodie; she couldn't help but ask as soon as she sat down.

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but smile and pinch her little nose, then replied, "We can start very soon. We need to go rent a small grill for the barbecue first, and buy delicious food! Later, you can go pick out whatever you want to eat, okay?"

"Okay!"

The three little ones immediately raised both hands in agreement.

This place is indeed incredibly convenient.

People who want to come here to play only need to prepare some snacks they like; all other ingredients for the barbecue can be bought as semi-finished products at nearby shops, and the quality is excellent.

Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue took the three little ones to rent a grill, selected a huge pile of food, and then headed back.

Tiantian was incredibly excited; as soon as she got back, she quickly started rummaging through her little backpack.

Then, as if performing magic, she took out two large glass bottles from inside and said loudly, "Mommy! This is the barbecue sauce I specially made last night! We can use this later!"

Jiang Baobao took them with pleasant surprise, her expression somewhat astonished.

Their little princess is truly gifted when it comes to eating!

Usually, as long as she tastes something, she can guess the method and the seasonings used with high accuracy; she is simply a little genius at cooking!

The sauce she made today must be delicious too!

Jiang Baobao smiled and looked at Mobai and Yanbao, who were helping to take out the ingredients, feeling incredibly relaxed.

Tiantian also hopped over to her two brothers' side and volunteered, "I'm here to help too! The sooner we finish organizing, the sooner we can eat delicious food!"

Just as her voice fell, the next second—

A soccer ball suddenly flew over at high speed from behind Yanbao!
